The Power-On Self Test (POST)

Each time you turn on the computer, the system takes a few seconds to conduct a
POST, including a quick test of the on-board RAM (memory).

As the POST proceeds, the computer will tell you if there is anything wrong. If there
is a problem that prevents the system from booting, it will display a system summary
and prompt you to run PhoenixBIOS Setup Utility.

If there are no problems, the PhoenixBIOS Setup Utility prompt will disappear and
the system will load the operating system. Once that starts, you can’t get into the
PhoenixBIOS Setup Utility without rebooting.
